Proper Post December 2018 Review
Chill Art
The first item I received was this art page. It is printed on an A5 sheet of paper and is perfect for putting in a frame and hanging up or displaying somewhere.
Happy Birthday Card
The first card in this month’s Proper Post is the very elegant floral Happy Birthday card. It is really pretty with blues, greens, and some coral colors. The card is blank on the inside and is paired with a traditional style brown envelope.
Floral Card
This card is really similar to the last one with the same elegant floral pattern. This card is not holiday or celebration specific as it doesn’t have a message meaning it can be used for anything. Like the other card, it is blank on the inside. This one is paired with a white traditional style envelope.
It’s Your Birthday Greeting Card
The last card I received in this month’s Proper Post is this birthday card. My birthday is in April, the month of showers, and the rain on this card really reminded me of that. It is a blank card and is paired with a brown traditional style envelope.
Never Forget Your Own Worth Notecard
I also received this inspirational note card. It is simple and sweet with yellow and black stars. The back of the card has a border of the same black and yellow stars. This notecard is paired with a brown European style envelope.
You Are The Best Mini Card
This was my first mini card in a Proper Post parcel – its just so cute! I love the bright, vibrant colors and the pattern of the card. It is paired with a bright orange envelope and is blank on the inside.
Blushing Ghost Pin
This is such a cute pin of a sweet ghost with blushing cheeks and a smile.
Rainbow Washi Tape
The final item I received in this month’s Proper Post is rainbow washi tape. It is a standard spool of washi tape with lots of colors in a diagonal design
The final item we received is this standard pencil with #writenow printed on it. This will officially be deemed the homework pencil.
Verdict: I enjoyed the cards in this month’s parcel. This is probably one of my favorite Proper Post parcels I have ever received. I did receive a card from the owner of Proper Post in this month’s parcel indicating it was the last one My Subscription Addiction would be receiving so it is a bittersweet ending (the subscription is still alive and well, we just will not be reviewing them any further). I have definitely loved receiving parcel’s from Proper Post, my favorite card ever being the Unstoppable Dinosaur card I received in September.
